Best Lure For Spring Fishing

[kc]

You didn't say what you were fishing for but I will throw out a thought on a catch all lure. If I only had one lure to fish it would have to be a 1/8 oz curly tail jig. When I take the kids fishing in the spring you can throw one on 6 lb line with light spinning tackle and catch about anything that swims. Mostly we are trying to catch crappie and yellows but we catch pretty much everything with them - bass (mostly small), bluegills, sunfish, redear, drum, and even an occasional catfish. And although you mostly catch small bass I have caught many good-sized bass on small jigs and I have even caught several bass 5+ lbs on these while playing around with them. Another close variation is the same sized road runner - jig with spinner...

I would have to agree with KC about the curly tail jig you just can't beat em'. If you are pond fishing maybe try a beetle spin or a white rooster tail or mepps spinner. In my opinion there is no "catch all" lure but there are some the do out perform others on most situations.
